- 1 teaspoon coconut oil or neutral oil (for melting chocolate)
Instructions
- Step 1: Prepare Your Baking Pan
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a 9x9-inch (23x23 cm) baking pan with parchment paper, leaving some overhang for easy removal.
- Step 2: Mix Dry Ingredients
- In a medium bowl, whisk together flour, baking powder, and salt. Set aside.
- Step 3: Combine Butter and Sugar
- In a large bowl, whisk melted butter and brown sugar until smooth and glossy.
- Step 4: Add Eggs and Vanilla
- Beat in eggs, one at a time, then add vanilla extract and mix until combined.
- Step 5: Fold in Dry Ingredients
- Gradually fold the dry ingredients into the wet mixture until just combined—do not overmix.
- Step 6: Add Cadbury Mini Eggs
- Gently fold in the chopped Cadbury Mini Eggs, reserving a few for topping if desired.
- Step 7: Fill Baking Pan
- Spread the batter evenly into the prepared pan. Sprinkle reserved Mini Eggs on top.
- Step 8: Bake
- Bake for 23–27 minutes, or until the edges are golden and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out with just a few moist crumbs.
- Step 9: Cool Completely
- Allow to cool completely in the pan on a wire rack.
- Step 10: Prepare White Chocolate Drizzle
- For the drizzle, melt white chocolate chips with coconut oil in a microwave-safe bowl in 20-second intervals, stirring until smooth. Drizzle over cooled blondies.
- Step 11: Slice and Serve
- Lift blondies from the pan using parchment overhang, slice into 16 squares, and serve.
Zusatztipps für die Zubereitung
The key to perfect blondies is avoiding overmixing once you add the flour—this keeps them tender rather than tough. Make sure your melted butter has cooled slightly before mixing with the sugar to prevent the eggs from cooking when added. Room temperature eggs incorporate more smoothly into the batter, creating a more uniform texture. Don't overbake; the toothpick should come out with a few moist crumbs, not completely clean, as the blondies will continue to set as they cool. For the cleanest cuts, chill the blondies in the refrigerator for 30 minutes before slicing, and wipe your knife between cuts.

Varianten und Anpassungen
For extra crunch and nutty flavor, add 1/2 cup chopped pecans or walnuts to the batter along with the Mini Eggs. If you prefer a different chocolate profile, swap the white chocolate drizzle for milk chocolate or dark chocolate. You can also experiment with different candy mix-ins—try chopped Reese's eggs, malted milk balls, or even a combination of Cadbury Mini Eggs and regular chocolate chips. For a gluten-free version, substitute the all-purpose flour with a 1:1 gluten-free baking blend. Add a pinch of sea salt on top of the white chocolate drizzle for a sweet-salty contrast that elevates the flavor.
